| | Charles Kingsley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Kingsley's humour has escaped many; perhaps it can be found in another of his historical romances, named after its heroine, Hypatia, in which the arch neo-Platonist of end-of-empire Alexandria converts to Christianity at the moment of her obscene murder. | | | Kingsley's concern for social reform is illustrated in his great classic, The Water-Babies (1863), a kind of fairytale about a boy chimney-sweep, which retained its popularity well into the 20th century. | | | His argument, in print, with John Henry Newman is said to have prompted the latter to produce his Apologia Pro Vita Sua. |

| | Mary Kingsley |
| | Although Kingsley did not consider taking his daughter with him on his travels, she was given the task of making notes on relevant material from his large collection of books on the subject. | | | It was written on the book of Fate that she (Mary Kingsley) should die just as the practical usefulness of her work, its high morality and extreme accuracy, were forcing themselves upon the notice of her contemporaries in politics, administration and commerce, and upon the imagination of thinking England. | | | News of Mary Kingsley's adventures reached England and when she landed at Liverpool she was greeted by journalists who wanted to interview her about her experiences. |

| | Biography of Kingsley |
| | In 1855 Kingsley published Glaucus; or, The Wonders of the Shore (1855), an introduction to natural history and one of the first books of its kind to be written specifically for children. | | | Kingsley was vanquished by a far more subtle and intellectual opponent, though posterity gained Newman's Apologia Pro Vita Sua (1864) as a result of the debate. | | | His father, Charles, though reared to be a country gentleman, had taken Holy Orders because of the financial mismanagement of his inheritance. |

| | Kingsley, Charles -- Britannica Student Encyclopedia |
| | François Rabelais in Gargantua uses the phrase à la venue des cocquecigrues to mean “never.” Charles Kingsley in The Water Babies has the fairy Bedonebyasyoudid report that there are seven things he is forbidden to tell until “the coming of the Cocqcigrues.” The word is of French origin. | | | From the sense of frustration engendered by these experiences Newman was delivered in 1864 by an unwarranted attack from Charles Kingsley upon his moral teaching. | | | The books of English novelist Henry Kingsley were popular for half a century. |

| | Amazon.com: Books: The Water-Babies (Books of Wonder) |
| | Kingsley's work is poised between two words: the world of Christianity and the whimsical realm of fairies, and the onset of the scientific and historical developments that resulted in the evolution theory, industrial factories and the War. | | | Charles Kingsley's "fairy tale for a land baby" has charmed generations of readers. | | | Like Barrie, Kingsley's story is chock full of allegory and moralising, namely concerned with images of baptism and rejuvenation, as seen from Tom's transformation from "dirty" (figuratively and literally) to the white form of the water baby, to the moral growth that he gains over the course of the story. |

| | Charles Kingsley: A Biography |
| | Setting his novel in the fifth century allowed Kingsley to attack from a distance nineteenth-century tendencies he believed were rending the fabric of English life. | | | Kingsley's Christian Socialist sympathies voiced through the pseudonym "Parson Lot" continued to find expression in print at least through 1851. | | | The Heroes; or, Greek Fairy Tales for My Children is a retelling of ancient tales and indicates his growing interest in writing for children, an interest to which he would return in 1862 with The Water-Babies and in 1868 with Madam How and Lady Why. |

| | The book is saturated in the romance of marsh, open sky and inland waterways, an atmosphere Kingsley had already brought to bear on the problem of evolution in his fable The Water Babies (1863). | | | In 1864 Kingsley wrote a review casting doubt on the integrity of the Roman Catholic clergy, but was routed by J. Newman in Apologia pro Vita Sua. | | | Throughout his life Kingsley sought to reconcile religion and science. |

| | An Essay by Charles Kingsley, "My Winter Garden." |
| | In any life, in any state, however simple or humble, there will be always sufficient to occupy a minute philosopher: and if a man be busy, and busy about his duty, what more does he require, for time or for eternity? | | | Here, I imagine, Kingsley quotes George Henry Lewes (1817-78), English littérateur. | | | Coming out of Magdalene College (Cambridge), Kingsley had intended to take up the law but abandoned that idea and entered the church becoming the rector at Eversley at Hampshire and spent the rest of his life there. |
